Back in 2016, the Mighty looked to be too good to be true. It promised an offline Spotify player the size of an iPod shuffle. This failed to impress, but the Mighty Vibe Spotify Music fixes a lot of the issues and perked my interest again.

The Mighty Vibe allows you to store your offline music onto it. This is all done through the Mighty app, which was a breath of fresh air to use. So many times I have used an app which is terrible, but this was easy to use. You sync with your Spotify account and then download your music to the Mighty Vibe.

The Mighty Vibe also features Bluetooth which allows you to connect to your Air Pods, Bluetooth speaker or headphones. There is also a 3.5mm port for your authentic headphone users. This makes the Vibe amazing to go to the gym, or a run without having to lug your whole phone with you. It is able to remember which Bluetooth device is has connected with, which avoids a lengthy process each time to listen with.

The range is awesome, and I could leave this in my bag and walk a little bit away and still hear the music. This was a problem with the original Mighty.

I am so disappointed with my purchase. Everything feels extremely buggy. I mean 90% of the time, it doesn’t work. 10% of the time it works, as it should for a very limited time. 1) I couldn’t update the firmware – In their website they mention that Mighty is known to have problems with some routers (at least 40% of homes in this country has this model of router so I think it’s a problem of Mighty) 2) Connection between app and device is poor, it’s not smooth as it’s explained in the manual. Most of the time I have to reboot the device to get connection the app. 3) Sound quality is bad. Sounds so flat and signalling a cheap DAC. ( I use a wired Sennheiser C.40) EQ could have helped but seeing the device stuggling to even do firmware update or syncinc the playlists , I know it’s simply too much to ask for.
